Funny you should mention the military industrial complex: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military-entertainment_complex

> In Hollywood, many movie productions are directly supervised by the Department of Defense's (DoD's) Film Liason Unit. Directors looking to borrow Army material for their movies need to apply to the DoD, and submit their movies' scripts for vetting. Ultimately, the DoD has a say in virtually every US-made movie that use military resources in their production.

Seems to be increasingly uncommon with the rise of computer graphics. Far easier to edit a tank into the background than to have a real tank driving around.

The same exact thing happens with TV shows and movies depicting american policing. If your script does not toe the line, good luck getting those permits necessary to film.
